    Last 3 months have been Crazy went from seeing a model 3 like once a month  To Multiple in a day Everyday ( I do drive a good amount)   Model S are very popular by me though and have been for a while. Interesting to see the 3 take over though. Im assuming ill see more 3s then S in a few more months

    michaelocarroll007 got a reaction from Bl00dgod in Nintendo Switch Online Service costs money   
    Alright " Steam just launched a usable team voicechat" Exactly why something like discord is able to succeed is steam sucked at it.  but its Something xbox had 10 years ago. Paying did lead to a better online experience. If that difference is worth it to you or not is your own personal value but  to disregard it has some benefit at all is wrong. 
     
    Even the fragmentation on PC can be a headache Steam Orgins Windows Store Uplay. When you want to invite a friend to play or join a party Xbox handles all these companies games with a single account  on PC you need 4 different Friendslists  and then a discord type app with another 5th friends list. Invite on discord then  invite on game.  you only had steam up and your friend only had orgins up so you cant even see each other are online to invite em to play together. 
     
    There is a convenience factor as well  as many other things from Free Monthly games
     
    Steam is awesome  But that doesnt disprove paying has always lead to a better Experience overall for most people

    I don't care what anyone promises any more, we've had so many broken ones. I don't give two shits till the game actually exists.

    I Think PUBG players are Quitting i don't think there all going to Fortnight though some might.. Its not like If you stop playing pubg your only choice is Fortnight.... Weird Assumption Personally i just play PUBG a lot less as it seems they'll never fix its Technical Problems. They are launching a 3rd map and balanced all the guns lately but When my FPS drops crazy and lag is terrible at times.

    Eh i have Never played more then 1 or 2 of the Free games over the last what 3+ ish years Ps and Xbox have been doing this. I really only want to play the few games i specifically choose and buy. Dont have much of an interest in a game i cant choose and is Half the time seemingly really old and sorta bad. id greatley take a half off discount to get rid of this. 
     
    Im sure for some people its awesome though.

    michaelocarroll007 got a reaction from Crunchy Dragon in 15 Arrested in connection to PUBG cheating   
    i don't think hes crying much.
     
    Just announced they hit 44 Million sales at $30.00 a copy thats 1.3 Billion the game has created in revenue ignoring crate money. 
     
    They still hit 2.5 Million daily concurrent players on steam only which is insane as the best day ever any other game on it has ever had was Free to install and only 1.3 Million.
     
    Declining yes But still huge and insanely profitable also yes. its in the top 5 Best selling video games EVER at this point

    TLDR : Both are Absolutely killing it in player base and profits. 
     
    Edit its also funny cause the 500k redditors subreddit and steam comments every update would say You guys know new content isn't going to get this game back on top Fixing the cheating and optimization is all they should do.  the 3rd map is coming soon and has already had 2 betas so they are not only stopping cheating they've been working on content. Also the biggest PUBG update ever drops tomorrow.

    Eh i mean its pretty believable at the guess of 13tflops.  The 1080 is 9tflops 45% improvement in 2 years and they already have the newest titian at 12tflops so it comes in just a Tad higher then this. Id honestly hope it hits 15tflops as 13 is pretty lack luster even more so when you consider since pricing is always going up each launch

    I think the investors feel this will blow over. The krill are addicted to FB. Logging in is habitual. The masses won't leave... And FB does care about non paying consumers, because the whales have to eat something...

    As far as I know it's to do with the RMA issues years ago. Until Nvidia is willing to pay back what Apple thinks they are owed, it's unlikely to ever change imo.

    yeah 1050 is about as low as you would want to go. MX150 is really only good if you just want to play rocket league type games and older games.

    michaelocarroll007 reacted to WMGroomAK in Some 13-inch Ultrabooks shipping with downclocked MX150s   
    I can see some point to nVidia wanting to keep these listed as MX150 parts since it doesn't sound like they changed any of the hardware , more along the lines of forced underclocking, but it would be nice if they had just tagged something like an 'E' after it for 'Energy Efficient'.  Does end up creating some confusion in the market though when you're looking for a nice light and portable laptop that has decent graphics capabilities for work tasks and some light gaming.
